Structural determination and kinetic analysis of the transketolase from Vibrio vulnificus reveal unexpected cooperative behavior. Protein Sci 2024; 33:e4884.

Abstract
Vibrio vulnificus (vv) is a multidrug-resistant human bacterial pathogen whose prevalence is expected to increase over the years. Transketolases (TK), transferases catalyzing two reactions of the nonoxidative branch of the pentose-phosphate pathway and therefore linked to several crucial metabolic pathways, are potential targets for new drugs against this pathogen. Here, the vvTK is crystallized and its structure is solved at 2.1 Å. A crown of 6 histidyl residues is observed in the active site and expected to participate in the thiamine pyrophosphate (cofactor) activation. Docking of fructose-6-phosphate and ferricyanide used in the activity assay, suggests that both substrates can bind vvTK simultaneously. This is confirmed by steady-state kinetics showing a sequential mechanism, on the contrary to the natural transferase reaction which follows a substituted mechanism. Inhibition by the I38-49 inhibitor (2-(4-ethoxyphenyl)-1-(pyrimidin-2-yl)-1H-pyrrolo[2,3-b]pyridine) reveals for the first time a cooperative behavior of a TK and docking experiments suggest a previously undescribed binding site at the interface between the pyrophosphate and pyridinium domains.

Abstract
Against the backdrop of increased public health awareness, inorganic nanomaterials have been widely explored as promising nanoagents for various kinds of biomedical applications. Layered double hydroxides (LDHs), with versatile physicochemical advantages including excellent biocompatibility, pH-sensitive biodegradability, highly tunable chemical composition and structure, and ease of composite formation with other materials, have shown great promise in biomedical applications. In this review, we comprehensively summarize the recent advances in LDH-based nanomaterials for biomedical applications. Firstly, the material categories and advantages of LDH-based nanomaterials are discussed. The preparation and surface modification of LDH-based nanomaterials, including pristine LDHs, LDH-based nanocomposites and LDH-derived nanomaterials, are then described. Thereafter, we systematically describe the great potential of LDHs in biomedical applications including drug/gene delivery, bioimaging diagnosis, cancer therapy, biosensing, tissue engineering, and anti-bacteria. Finally, on the basis of the current state of the art, we conclude with insights on the remaining challenges and future prospects in this rapidly emerging field.

Abstract
AbstractThe high mortality rate of non-small-cell lung cancer (NSCLC) is mostly due to the high risk of recurrence. A comprehensive understanding of proliferation mechanisms of NSCLC would remarkably contribute to blocking up the invasion and metastasis of tumor cells. In our previous study, the remarkable decreased activity of Thiamine-dependent enzymes (TDEs), involving in intermediary metabolism responsible for energy production of tumor, was found under conditions of thiamine deficiency in vivo. To explore the effect of Oxythiamine (OT), a TDEs antimetabolite, on cell growth, we co-cultured A549 cells with OT in vitro at various doses (0.1, 1, 10 and 100 μM) and time periods (6, 12, 24 and 48 h) and subsequent cell proliferation and apoptosis assays were performed respectively. Our findings demonstrated that A549 cells proliferation was significantly downregulated by OT treatment in a progressively dose as well as time dependent manner. Inhibition of TDEs resulted in antagonism of lung cancer growth by inducing cells to cease the cycle as well as apoptotic cell death. We concluded a critical role of OT, a TDEs antagonistic compound, indicating the potential target of its practical use.

Abstract
Vitamins are essential compounds to yeasts, and notably in winemaking contexts. Vitamins are involved in numerous yeast metabolic pathways, including those of amino acids, fatty acids, and alcohols, which suggests their notable implication in fermentation courses, as well as in the development of aromatic compounds in wines. Although they are major components in the course of those microbial processes, their significance and impact have not been extensively studied in the context of winemaking and wine products, as most of the studies focusing on the subject in the past decades have relied on relatively insensitive and imprecise analytical methods. Therefore, this review provides an extensive overview of the current knowledge regarding the impacts of vitamins on grape must fermentations, wine-related yeast metabolisms, and requirements, as well as on the profile of wine sensory characteristics. We also highlight the methodologies and techniques developed over time to perform vitamin analysis in wines, and assess the importance of precisely defining the role played by vitamins in winemaking processes, to ensure finer control of the fermentation courses and product characteristics in a highly complex matrix.

Abstract
Despite the use of layered double hydroxides (LDH) in different electrochemical (bio)sensors, the construction of aptasensors using LDH-based surfaces was not reported to the best of our knowledge. This may be due to the lack of a suitable linker to attach aptamers to the LDH-modified surface. LDH-based aptasensors are established here as very sensitive and reliable devices in serum and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) analysis. 5'-NH2 DNA aptamer probes were immobilized on the LDH-based surfaces in a vertical conformation without any linker materials. Due to the low electron conductivity of the LDH, carbon nanotubes (CNT) with high electronic conductivity and high surface area were combined with LDH. Thrombin was used as a model protein for aptasensing. The sensor shows a linear range of 0.005-12,000 pmol L-1 and a limit of detection of 0.1 fmol L-1. Moreover, the aptasensor was used for the sensing of thrombin in CSF and serum samples acquired from both healthy and patients with different disease.

Abstract
Transketolases (TKs) are ubiquitous thiamine pyrophosphate (TPP)-dependent enzymes of the nonoxidative branch of the pentose phosphate pathway. They are considered as interesting therapeutic targets in numerous diseases and infections (e.g., cancer, tuberculosis, malaria), for which it is important to find specific and efficient inhibitors. Current TK assays require important amounts of enzyme, are time-consuming, and are not specific. Here, we report a new high throughput electrochemical assay based on the oxidative trapping of the TK-TPP intermediate. After electrode characterization, the enzyme loading, electrochemical protocol, and substrate concentration were optimized. Finally, 96 electrochemical assays could be performed in parallel in only 7 min, which allows a rapid screening of TK inhibitors. Then, 1360 molecules of an in-house chemical library were screened and one early lead compound was identified to inhibit TK from E. coli with an IC50 of 63 μM and an inhibition constant ( KI) of 3.4 μM. The electrochemical assay was also used to propose an inhibition mechanism.
